Healthy Paws is the best decision!

I adopted an 8 week old Boston Terrier in February 2014. I have had numerous friends and family experience health scares and accidents with their pets. I did not want to be in a situation where I have to break the bank in order to save my Stella if something were to happen to her. I decided to get some pet insurance for her right away. I researched all the companies out there and Healthy Paws had the most favorable rating. I wanted a company that would be easy to deal with if I needed to file a claim. I also wanted one that was afforable. I chose Paws because they have a very high customer satisfaction rating. This past month Stella was having some respiratory issues in the middle of the night. I took her to the emergency vet first thing in the morning because our vet was closed on Mondays. It made me feel good to know that si had insurance for Stella and that I did not have to stress myself out regarding how I was going to pay for her medical bills. Stella's bills were close to $1,000 for everything. I submitted my claim a couple of days later. I was contacted by Healthy Paws via e-mail when they received my claim. They emailed me the following week to let me know that my reimbursement check was in the mail. I also received two e-mails from Healthy Paws just to ask how Stella was doing. I wish my doctor would be that thorough! I have nothing but good things to say about Healthy Paws! If you own a pet, the best thing you can do is get them insured.

Great Coverage. Quick Service. Caring People

When I got my wonderful rescued Black Lab, Jack, three years ago, I decided to get health coverage so that I would never have to say 'no' for needed health care. I didn't expect to have to use it but when Jack ate a bag of trail mix with a ton of raisins and had to have his kidneys flushed. Most recently he had to have a rectal polyp removed. Healthy Paws was wonderful. So easy and quick to file a claim. Very good communication. And a quick payment. I highly recommend Healthy Paws to all my friends who love their animals.

Heathly Paws is the best!

After researching pet insurance for our cat, I felt that Healthy Paws offered the best coverage, options and premium. The policy is easy to read and spells out exactly what they cover and what they exclude. We have had the coverage for almost a year and they have been great! Easy to submit claims, I have sent everything by fax or email. I have submitted 3 claims and they paid exactly what I knew they would pay. Each time the claims have been handled and paid within one week. I couldn't be happier with Healthy Paws and I would recommend them to anyone looking for health insurance for their feline family member.

Thankful

When I rescued Ellie, a paraplegic French Bull, I had a very difficult time finding an insurance company. I read up on reviews and spent some time talking to various companies. The insurance company for my other dogs denied care. Healthy Paws, although they did want a copy of Ellie's exam and had some exclusions, was much more welcoming than others. I went with Healthy Paws and they have been wonderful. They are attentive, quick to respond and caring about their "clients". When Ellie had surgery recently it was all about Ellie and how she was doing. It comforts me to have Healthy Paws aligned with Elle's care.Thanks!

Great first experience!

Healthy Pause reimbursed for the majority of our puppy's procedures and did so extremely quickly. They even checked in shortly thereafter to see how he was feeling (our vet didn't even follow up)!We joked that we'd like to sign ourselves up for pet insurance if only they'd cover humans! The service is wonderful. There was no additional stress added to a very stressful experience.
